Krug asked me several times to retract a post on my blog; I refused, citing truth as a defense against defamation accusations. Krug backed down from his libel threat.

Krug has also backed down from challenging non-point source runoff causing dangerously high E. coli levels in area waters and beaches, which Krug claims is the reason behind his late opposition to the proposed Wysocki concentrated animal feeding operation after almost three years of Wood and Adams county residents asking Krug to take a stand.

Krug refuses to challenge Gov. Scott Walker's historic transformation of the state Department of Natural Resources into a pollution-friendly agency.

Krug reneged on his 2010 promise to serve only two terms; reneged on his promise not to accept one cent of per diem payments (he raked in over $10,000 on top of his $49,000 salary).

That's for starters.

It is clear by now that Krug will say anything to get elected; and do anything to not betray Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce, the Dairy Business Association and the Republican machine that bankrolls Krug's campaign, the balance of which he will take home after his defeat in November.
